New Build

Fairfield Inn by Marriott

Surat, India

Each year, when winter breathes its last breath and summer begins to breathe warming life over the Indian region of Gujarat, the kites take to the air. Part celebration, part competition, the scene is awash in color—saffron and blazing pink, azure and violet feathers, fronds and tails fill the skies. Our work for Marriott India on this 100-room new prototype concept property draws from this spectacle and splendor of Indian culture, from citrine panels and festive embroidery to a large, glass ceiling fixture featuring dozens of fragile, dangling kite-like pendants.
